The Architect’s Memo
Lore In A Letter
A master architect strives to drive a set of principles and draw up a framework to capture all aspects of a solution with linked taxonomies in the most succinct means possible with clarity assured, leaving no space for ambiguity, uncertainty or paradox. S/he leaves trails of caveats as s/he knows wider perspectives will one day set in, and s/he sets a space to await for that moment.
🟢 The Classic Trade-off
We all started with the Classic Trade-off:
Fast, Cheap, Good — pick any two.
Yet, each requires its clear definition and measurements. To navigate this triad, systems require built-in balancing mechanisms.
🟢 Completeness and Clarity Verses Complexity
Complexity is a cost that wears down and kills. The hidden cost is burn-out and burn-down.
🟢 The Art of The System — Adaptive Monitoring, Identification, Recognition, Control, and Recovery (AMIRCR)
In ensure homeostasis, BIST is a promise.
As well, there has to be an adaptive detection and control — Feedback Loops and inbuilt regulators. With health-assurance pacers, circuit-breaking mechanisms, and parameter tuning modules to stabilize behavior. This also means that Cooperativity Modules are a nature of the system, enabling cross-examination between…
